Bat

41 species of bats are found in Myanmar. Except for their feeding habits and sizes, the common bat is similar to the fruit bat. The common bat does not eat fruits but eats only insects. During the daytime the common bat hides in nooks and crannies of buildings and trees. They have highly sensitive nerves in their wings and ears. The bats sense echoing sound waves which enables them to navigate.
